It is not fun to fight them. I played as France and on the first turn I attacked a Barbary fleet with 1 galley and 2 light galleys:



My lead ship was blasted to pieces by these buggers. And for some reason my cannon fire had zero effect on their hulls. The best way to deal with these is to let someone else fight them.

Obviously, their immense firepower is a bug.

The fire power is not a bug & they sit so low in the water they are easy to miss.

Are they over powered? My guess is yes, most definitely…Just like elephant artillery!

Gunboats and galleys carried heavy cannon firing forward and several could do a lot of damage to single ships…these tend to blow up your magazines and make boat go boom…all over…

They are small and maneuverable, and way, way too much speed. But I fear this is one of those things that isn’t going to change.
